This is a curious detail of the Festivities on the marriage of Frederick Count Palatine with Elizabeth the daughter of James I. It seems to have been a royal copy from the plates being illuminated.

PALAFOX Y MENDOZA, JUAN DE. Virtudes del Indio. S. 1. et a. 4to. B. M.

"Palafox fut un second Las Casas en

exposant au gouvernement espagnol la malheureuse condition des Americains, et en demandant l'Amelioration. Son zele et son humanité se montrerent sur tout dans cet exposé adressé au roi, où il a fait ressortir avec beaucoup d'habilité le bon naturel des natifs. Voilà pourquoi l'ouvrage a recu le titre de Virtudes del Indio: mais comme de tout temps veritas odium parit, il a été nécessaire de le faire imprimer secretement (vers 1650), sans aucun titre, et sans indication de lieu ni de date. N'ayant point été reimprimé depuis lors, ce livre est devenu un des plus rares de ceux qui ont rapport a l'Amerique." Catalogue de Salva, no. 3653, as quoted by

It contains 15 preliminary leaves, including some commendatory verses by Lovelace, Askham, &c., followed by 96 pages of Text.

"Edition de la plus grande rareté et dont on a long temps ignoré l'existence." Brunet, N. R. III. p. 7.

"In the Prologo of the first volume will be found thirty-two verses containing the

following acrostick, Luis Hurtado Autor

al lector.' There is therefore an end of Mr. Southey's ingenious reasonings, attributing this work to Moraes, in the Portuguese language, an opinion in which he was confirmed by Antonio, and by the editor of the Portuguese edition of 1785. The present Spanish edition however of 1547, with the name of its Spanish author is prior by ten years to that of Moraes, which puts the question at rest. Cervantes, knowing nothing of this Spanish edition, attributed the work, according to Faria de Sousa, to John II. of Portugal." MS. Note.

Terceira (e quarta) parte da Chronica de Palmeirim de Inglaterra na qual se tratam as grandes cavallarias de seu filho o Principe Dom Duardos segundo et dos mais Principes et cavalleiros que ña Ilha deleytosa se criarao. Composto por Diogo Fernandez vezinho de Lisboa. Impresso em Lisboa, por Jorge Rodriguez, 1604. Fol.

These third and fourth parts are printed in the Roman Letters, the third contains one hundred and seventy-nine leaves, not including the Title, and one leaf containing the Prologue and Privilege for the two parts; the fourth contains eighty-three leaves with no title. The four last leaves are printed in a smaller type than the body of the book.

Quinta e Sexta Parte de Palmeirim de Inglaterra; Chronica do Famoso Principe Dom Clarisol de Bretanha, filho do Principe dom Duardos de Bretanha, na qual se contão suas grandes cavallarias et dos principes Lindamor, Clarifebo et Beliandro de Grecia, filhos de Vas

peraldo Laudimante, et Primaliaō et de outros muitos principes et cavalleiros famosos de seu tempo. Composta, por Balthasar Gonçalvez Lobato. Lisboa, por Jorge Rodrigues, 1602. Fol.

These two parts are also printed in the Roman character. The fifth part contains one hundred and forty-two leaves, and two containing the Title, &c. The sixth contains ninety-eight leaves, the title being on the first with the Text, and concludes thus. "Acabouse a Chronica do muyto esforçado Cavalleiro Dom Clarisol de Bretanha neto de Palmeirim de Inglaterra, que he a quinta et sexta parte, a os tres dias do Mes de Novembro; Na era de 1602, Annos. Foy impressa esta sexta parte, em casa de Antonio Alvarez."

The four latter parts are also so rare that Mr. Southey says, "I have never been fortunate enough to meet with either."

This is the third Edition, but by a mistake in his Catalogue Salva printed the date 1533, and that error is adopted by Brunet. This is the copy from Salva's Cat.

After the Colophon there is a leaf containing some Latin verses by J. Auger, transmeren, bac. in praise of the Romance.

This very rare edition also contains the verses by J. Auger, which are not to be found in the subsequent editions.

"There is some obscurity as to the author of this rare book, and still more as to this edition. Of the author Audiffredi, p. 281, says, 'Quis fuerit ejus auctor nescio, neque scire curavi,' but he refers to an edition by Silber at Rome, 1487, and knows nothing of the present, which seems to be the same as the one in the Pinelli Catalogue. Denis, Supp. p. 630, questions whether the author is Maurili

anus."

MS. note.

This rare and original edition is attributed to the press of S. Reusinger at

Naples, circa, 1478. The preliminary leaf

of the Prologus which is found in this copy is frequently wanting. Concerning the celebrated author see Niceron, IX. p. 48, who however appears not to have known of this early Edition.
